S&P highest gains since 2007

This article talks about the incredible growth that the S&P has made since the beginning of the recession.  After closing at 1,503, a .05% gain, the S&P has climbed past 1,500 for the first time in 5 years.  This incredible growth is marked through the entire stock market as the DOW is slowly increasing as well.  Despit e Apple falling in price, which normally is the highest price stock in the S&P, there was still gain, which is an incredible sign of how well stocks are doing as a whole.  Hopefully this will lead to more investor and consumer confidence and jumpstart the economy, not only in terms of numbers but also in terms of the average persons opinion
